Yeah, cos you get LOADS of 200mph Audi 200s .

They're standard Cossie performance as stock, so IMO, THAT's a sleeper. Chrome wheels don't instantly scream 200mph capability to me . That's like saying every white Sapphire with Super-legaras on has got 900bhp + .

To me, a sleeper is a car that you wouldn't look twice at.

An Audi with a set of big 'fuck off' rims is not a sleeper IMO.

Looks like that was done on a rolling road... The camera man doesn't 'lean' back with the acceleration when he plants it after the 'top speed run' part.

A set of deep dish wheels gives it away that it will pull all the way to 200mph????



if you see this up your arse on the motorway @ 100, you'd put your foot down, he'd still be there till you pulled out the way, and keep going
